----!! This show provides examples of:* BackwardsFiringGun: Used seriously in one story, where the killer commissions a special one-shot gun for this purpose, replacing a cop's gun with it. * BadassInANiceSuit* BrickJoke- In his first story, Luca is contracted to kill a gangster's ex-girlfriend but ends up sleeping with her. He uses her clothes to fake her death to the gangster. When she later betrays him, Luca enlists Rascal to kill her. He comes back with the girl'S clothes as proof he killed her. The look on Luca'S face says it all.* EvilVsEvil - A common circumstance as Luca himself is an utter bastard and many of his opponents are, too.* FakingTheDead* FemmeFatale: If Luca has a flaw, he underestimates how crafty some women can be, sometimes letting them outsmart him.* FilmNoir: A pretty straightforward example.* {{Malaproper}} - Luca's English is less than perfect, somewhat justified in that he's an immigrant from Italy who didn't know any English when he first arrived in the States.* ObfuscatingDisability - To hide a gun* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname - Many characters just call him Torpedo.* ProfessionalKiller - Luca's primary source of income, even if the target is someone he personally likes.* ScarpiaUltimatum - Not having the money to pay for Luca's services is generally a bad for the women in your life.* StartOfDarkness - When Luca first arrived in the States, he was consistently harassed by a corrupt cop who forced Luca to shine his shoes without payment daily. Luca eventually stole his gun and later murdered him, beginning his criminal career.* VillainProtagonist: "Torpedo" is basically a scumbag, and half the series' appeal is watching him succeed anyway.* YouKilledMyFather - the boy in chapter 2.
